I don't really understand the hate. From what I understand you can remotely control ships. I imagine this will place you into a first person like environment similar to how "really" flying a ship would be. Is it just the idea that you are not "physically" in a ship?

I don't give a damn about the one ship thing. You can upgrade your ship and you can even land your ship and command a capital ship. Good enough for me. Maybe because I'm a trader and not really a fighter.

Trading on a galactic level requires multiple ships. What you like to be is a cart driver going from small town to small town. One ship is perfectly fine for that. One ship is also perfectly fine for being a fighter.

As far as I understand you can have all the trading ships you want in your fleet. You just can't fly them.

X3: Come across new ship. Cooooool, that thing looks awesome. *want* *get* "Fukken sweeeeeeeeet!"
Rebirth: Come across new ship. Cooooool, that thing looks awesome. *want* *can not has*

That's basically why I think it sucks... and no, just ordering it around isn't the same as flying it.

looks like my little plan was fucked up, e.e no support for XP 32 bits?.....dammit, D: i dont know if the graphics card of the other computer can run that game..... T_T

I assume said other computer is a laptop? Thus why you cannot remove videocard from ye olde 32 bit and install on 64 bit?

this PC is fine as it is, i've played several titles here, and i've never actually needed the other PC, its not a laptop, 1 tera of hard disk, ati card (the same that comes with the whole thing) win 7 official and other shit. i've played up to EVE Online (full graphics) with the old PC and i wouldnt like to make the shift yet, unless my dad really has to buy another......

one PC is for my mother's works, the other is for me and my brother,  if there's need for a new machine we buy one, but this isnt a real need. so i can stick to the old machine, i was expecting to see a 32 bit client. well at least i can hope the other PC can launch it with low settings.....

Sooo i took a good read at the manual and something got me worried hard....

*An icon will be visible as to where you can build a station, fly to it and
interact with it and select “build” from the menu.*

Soooo we can only build station at pre-determined place now? Or am i reading it wrong? i do hope im wrong because right now im getting a bit worried on multipled front, only 5 main weapon, 5-6 missile type, only one pilotable ship, drone range limit, trading good seems to be limited too, i really do hope the game will receive much more content because right now im scared.. i feel like its a COD version of the X-Series, everything for the eyes, some good gameplay mecanics, but shallow with not much content. Dont mix content and gameplay system, by content im talking about choice variaties in weapons, missiles, and so on.

Ok good station are big ass and complex, now more akin to space cities, but PLEASEEEE if i want to build my station in the middles of an asterod field like in X-3 LET ME, dont hard lock the location... if they are, i hope they gonna be able to change that with modding....

Edit: Also i tried finding the

Modifying X Rebirth

section they said in the manual, found nothing about that...

I am fairly certain the devs said predetermined station locations within the last month in a video.

I must have missed it... im quite disapointed really...

It's not surprising with the way NPC traffic is handled. They don't seem smart enough to find docks even at the level X3 handled it.

You can remote control drones. Drones =/= ships. I really do wish people would stop acting like this hasn't been done before in an X game, though.

I wonder if this is the compromise for being able to handle all the pathing glitches that caused AI to die and the player to be pathed into stations. You lose flexibility but gain reliable pathing.

Pathing into stations wasn't that common. It was more common to end up in a loop of fly to and away from the backside of a dock.
